Experiencing a world of creativity and filling my blank pages one day at a time. Welcome to the From Blank Pages blog. A casual setting to share my creative experiences and experiments. The name, From Blank Pages, has everything to do with the journey of fresh starts, discovery, exploration, gathering inspiration, creativity, the process of trial and error, and collecting the best of what life presents.
